ok - so it's not exactly on topic, but i'm thinking someone on here can help - i recently picked up a used mac g3 powerbook. i'm interested in recording audio from a mixer and turntables onto the laptop itself. the back of the laptop has two sound-in ports, one for a mic and one for 16-bit stereo. the outs from my gemini mixer are standard rca cables. anyone able to tell me where i go from here? just wondering exactly what cord i need to connect the two, which port is best to use (16-bit stereo?) and what kind of audio program is good for recording mixes and eventually burning them onto cd - make sense? thanks in advance for the help - now back to your regularly scheduled program... ===== Brock Phillips Motormouthmedia 2525 Hyperion Ave. #1 Los Angeles, CA 90027 fon 323.662.3865 fax 323.662.3844 email bmotor@pacbell.net __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Brock: go to Radio Shack and get a RCA to Miniplug converter. You should be able to record into something like SoundEdit 16 or Soundmaker or even something more involved like Protools or Logic. All you'll need to do then is switch over your soundmanager to "Sound in" rather than "External Mic". If you come up short on software I'm sure you can find an elementary bit of software at "Mac Music Software": http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/mac/ All the best.. Donna Summer
